I would put this feature low on the priority list though. prj@po.cwru.edu (Paul Jarc) writes: > Josh Huber wrote: >> prj@po.cwru.edu (Paul Jarc) writes: >>> When displaying a message, if MFT exists, and none of the given >>> addresses would cause MFT to be generated for a response, then we >>> can give a warning, and maybe offer to add the address (if there's >>> only one) to this group's parameters (assuming the new >>> mail-address vector parameter). >> >> Yeah, this sounds like a good idea, especially when combined with >> the new mail-address vector.
